Do not believe
because you read it in a book
Do not believe
because you saw it on television
Do not believe
because science says so
Do not believe
because a famous person says so
Do not believe
because a wise person believes in it
Do not believe
because your best friend believes it
Do not believe
because everyone else believes it
Do not believe
because others have believed in it for thousands of years

The Day Is Done
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The day is done, and the darkness
Falls from the wings of Night,
As a feather is wafted downward
From an eagle in his flight.
I see the lights of the village
Gleam through the rain and the mist,
And a feeling of sadness comes o'er me,
That my soul cannot resist:
A feeling of sadness and longing,
That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only

I don't know how I could have messed up so bad. I read your post here several months ago. I know you were talking to me, because not many people would share that type of information. I can't even begin to say what it's about but you knew, and I knew you knew and only a soul mate could have that match. So I will look for you here, but who knows if I didn't j...1 Recommendation1 Comment

Lie in wait
Don't tell anyone the plan
Remember the plan we discussed
one gray day last year?
That the Chinese have in their book of war
A good plan.
Patience is critical.
Feel the moment, grab your weapon-Attack!
Know your weapon
You are a hero in your family.
Nothing costs anything
But Human Loss.
See the Red beforehand.
The color of anger, power, absolute strength, mutilation

The old lose their language
In native tongue timing is clean, like water
Sparkling, clear, simple
Like before the war.
Why waste time with English?
It has no space for memories
Clipped, efficient, like soldiers
Marching through the mind.
When I was young we spoke feelings.
Beauty, nature, song prayer, a baby's cry
A girl laughing and a tear
How it feels when the wind blows
abd the sun shines.

GRANDMA'S HANDS
Grandma, some ninety plus years, sat feebly on the patio bench.
She didn't move, just sat with her head down staring at her hands.
When I sat down beside her she didn't acknowledge my presence and the longer I sat I wondered if she was OK.
Finally, not really wanting to disturb her but wanting to check on her
at the same time, I asked her if she was OK. She raised her h...1 Recommendation2 Comments -
“Let me be a free man. Free to travel. Free to stop. Free to work. Free to choose my own teachers. Free to follow the religion of my fathers. Free to think and talk and act for myself.”

IN GOD'S HANDS . . .
Rest in peace, my children,
Do not be gripped with fear;
For I, your God, am with you,
And I shall dry your tears.
For I will hold you closely,
Every woman, child or man;
Just look to Me, when you need peace,
You're in the palm of My hand.
Tho' the world seems to be falling,
And held in the grip of fea...1 Recommendation1 Comment -
Lyrics to MercyMe's "Bring The Rain"
I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that
I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You
Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But i...1 Recommendation1 Comment
